Abstract

Although resource sharing and mixed numerology among slices are promising for improving wireless resource utilization, these techniques can compromise isolation performance and cause serious inter numerology interference (INI). Therefore, this paper studies wireless resource management in a mixed numerology-based sliced 6G space-terrestrial integrated radio access network (STI-RAN) with the aim of reducing INI and guaranteeing isolation performance while decreasing interference from Doppler frequency shifts caused by the high-speed movement of low-orbit satellites. First, an isolation performance indicator is defined to evaluate different isolation performances, and a universal spectral distance model is formulated to rewrite the INI power model. Next, the dynamic wireless resource management problem is formulated in a discrete form, yielding a scheme called Flex-μ, which is designed to reduce the INI and Doppler frequency shifts, guarantee isolation performance, and enhance the SINR. Finally, an intelligent multi-characteristic matrix coding-based social group optimization (MultiMatrix-SGO) algorithm is designed to solve the proposed NP-hard discrete optimization problem. Compared with existing schemes, the system utility is efficiently increased by up to 58.32%, the SINR can converge to 38.44dB, and the isolation performance is guaranteed while the INI and Doppler frequency shifts are reduced.
